Fulton County to Host Inaugural Youth Homelessness System Innovation Conference
October 26, 2026
The Fulton County Department of Community Development, in collaboration with the Fulton County and Atlanta Youth Action Boards, will host the inaugural Youth Homelessness System Innovation Conference (YHSI-CON) on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Loudermilk Conference Center, 40 Courtland Street NE, Atlanta, GA 30303.
The free, youth-led conference will bring together young people ages 18–26, service providers, advocates, and community partners to explore innovative approaches to addressing youth homelessness. Developed with input from the Fulton County and Atlanta Youth Action Boards, the event will emphasize the importance of youth perspectives in improving access to resources and support services.
Conference discussions will focus on three key themes: resource sharing, system navigation, and reimagining and innovating a better youth system. Attendees will hear from youth leaders and service providers, share ideas, and explore ways to better support young people experiencing housing insecurity.
In addition to conference discussions and activities, attendees will have opportunities to participate in giveaways and win prizes throughout the event.
Registration, breakfast, lunch, and parking are free. Advance registration is required through Eventbrite.
